Texas law now requires you to visit the clinic in person at least 24 hours before your procedure
to receive information mandated by the state as well as an ultrasound (sonogram) examination by the physician
who will be completing your abortion. Please call us to schedule your initial visit.
Depending upon the length of pregnancy
(6 - 15 weeks) abortion is either a one or two day procedure.
Once the procedure is complete, the patient
will go to the recovery room before being released to go home. You
may bring someone to accompany you or arrange other transportation.
Any required post-operative medication is available from our pharmacy.
A free post operative exam is also available.
The Law
Several courts including the United States
Supreme Court have recognized the right of the individual to be free
from unwarranted intrusion into the decision whether to bear or beget
a child. As a result, our clinic does not require husband's consent
for married women however parental consent for minors is required
by law.
